UAE: Emirates renews contract with FedEx |
|
DUBAI - Emirates Airline, the fastest growing intercontinental airline, has renewed its contract with FedEx Express to provide the airline with supply-chain solutions for an additional three years.
According to the agreement, FedEx will focus on providing Emirates with enhanced solutions for their spare parts and flight operations supply chain. FedEx is also aiming to fully automate Emirates' shipping needs by integrating its order processing for aircraft spares.
FedEx will continue to support the smooth running of Emirates' diverse and rapidly expanding fleet, coordinating the supply and delivery of spare parts for routine maintenance and, where necessary, emergencies in foreign ports.
Saeed Mohammed, Emirates' vice president Procurement & Logistics (Services), said: "From early on, FedEx has developed effective solutions for our shipping requirements that ensure the fast delivery of spare parts wherever and whenever they are required. We are confident that FedEx's unparalleled service will continue to help Emirates maintain its fleet to the optimum standard to ensure a consistent level of service to our customers.''
Emirates' current fleet is comprised of 70 aircraft, a mix of Airbus A330-200s, A340-500s, Boeing 777-300s, 777-200s and 747-200/400 freighters. In 2006, Emirates will receive the first of 45 A380 double-deckers on order, and over the next decade it expects to more than double its fleet size.BY A STAFF REPORTER
